nVidia FX 5200 Dual-Screen

Hello.

Well I am new to this forum and I have a question



I have a nVidia FX 5200 and I need 2 screens instead of one,

so I wonder if it's possible and when it is: HOW?

Cause I have no idea

Thanks in advance!

Well first and foremost, does your 5200 even support two screens. I know some OEM cards only had a single output, or used VGA/DVI and say TV out.

Once you're confirmed you have two outputs, it's as simple as plugging in two monitors and enabling them through Nvidia's control panel.

i know my fx 5200 did way back...so hopefully his does.

Thanks for the information.

How do I plug in another monitor?

Because I have only one entrance to the video card.

Then you'll have to upgrade your video card. As I mentioned, some cards only have a single output.

Do you know which cards support this?

any card with 2 VGA or DVI outputs. Some cards come with 1 of each, or two of the same kind. Those will support dual displays.
